Hi Suz,I have boxwood topiary hedges in my garden and we clip them once a year and only get about an inch off. Before they are shaped they grow a bit quicker but once you start clipping them it seems to slow the growth down and also makes them denser and the leaves slightly smaller. If you want cutting material you might have to wait a while !! We also have yew topiary and that grows quicker and is a wonderful plant as well. Good luck with whatever you decide...love the pictures and whatever you choose will look great I am sure.
